The Kingdom of Marriage: My Stunning Empress

Chapter 53: Dragon Raising its Head, Spring Breeze, March 3

Half an hour later, at Li Mansion.

"Grandpa! Grandpa!"

Li Yujun rushed into the study room. At this moment, Li Rongdun was talking to a middle-aged man with a big belly.

This middle-aged man is Li Yujun’s biological father, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Li Chongze!

When Li Chongze saw Li Yujun rushing in, he immediately frowned and started yelling!

"When did you become so unruly!?"

Li Yujun was obviously a little afraid of Li Chongze. He immediately lowered his head obediently and apologized sincerely.

However, Li Rongdun, as a grandfather, seemed particularly indulgent towards his grandson.

He laughed and said, "Hey, he's still a child. There's no need to make him follow those rules every day."

"Jun'er, you are so anxious, what's the matter?"

Li Yujun hurriedly said, "Grandpa, Father! I just got the news that Han Zhuo, that fool, went to the garrison camp and drove away all 200 soldiers they had prepared for him!"

"This idiot is still yelling that these people are ugly and none of them are good!"

Li Rongdun and Li Chongze looked at each other and were both a little surprised by the news.

Afterwards, Li Rongdun stroked his long beard and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, he is a fool after all!"

"This time, the competition for leadership of the Eastern Palace Divine Martial Army is about leadership ability, not personal bravery. He drove away 200 soldiers. What effect can one person have?"

"Is he really going to fight my grandson's 200 soldiers alone? Ridiculous! Stupid!!"

Li Yujun quickly said, "News came from the garrison camp that after the big fool drove all these people away, he was still shouting that he wanted to recruit soldiers!"

While the grandfather and grandson continued to mock Han Zhuo, Li Chongze frowned.

He asked, "Why doesn't Han Zhuo look like a fool?"

"It was as if he knew in advance that we would place our own people among those soldiers."

"He chased all these people away. Could it be that he has discovered something? Or is there an expert giving him advice?"

Li Yujun quickly waved his hands, obviously not believing this statement at all.

He said to Li Chongze with great certainty, "Father, you have never met Han Zhuo."

"This Han Zhuona is indeed a crazy and stupid person!"

"He has always done things this way, and our people have already followed him. Now he has left the inner city and is recruiting soldiers in the outer city. It is said that he is recruiting those refugees!"

When Li Rongdun heard that Han Zhuo had recruited refugees, he burst into laughter, "Hahaha... this idiot!"

"Birds of a feather flock together! This idiot is nothing more than a street thug, a lowly creature!"

"He disdained the rigorously trained soldiers, and now he's gone to the outer city to recruit those emaciated refugees who haven't had enough food for so long!"

"Even if he can recruit 200 people, it doesn't matter. My grandson will still easily take care of them!"

"Alright, let's not bother with this idiot anymore. Let's hurry up and discuss how to deal with this big event!"

As soon as Li Rongdun changed the subject, Li Chongze immediately regained his focus.

Since both his son and his father said that Han Zhuo was a fool, Li Chongze no longer paid any attention to them.

At this moment, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he said to Li Rongdun, "Father, I think the Crown Princess shouldn't be allowed to ascend the throne too soon!"

Upon hearing this, Li Rongdun immediately asked, "Oh, what's your brilliant plan, son?"

Although Li Chongze is only the Minister of Personnel to the outside world, he is the core of the entire Li family and the leader!

Right now in Xuanyuan Country, all the major strategies of the Li family are determined by him.

At the same time, Li Chongze is also trusted by the current "Regent Queen" of the Daqian Empire!

They are also the three think tanks appointed by the powerful Queen Regent!

Therefore, Li Chongze has an extraordinary status in the family!

Almost everyone believed in what Li Chongze said as if it were a creed.

Li Chongze's eyes became extremely cold at this time. He said, "From what I see, whether it's the Queen Mother or the Empress, their goal is to suppress the news of the Emperor's death."

"Everything will be announced after the Crown Princess ascends the throne as Empress. At that time, the Crown Princess will only need to mourn for a month before officially managing state affairs."

"This Yang Pan'er is just a puppet. Right now, the Queen and the Murong family have a deep control over her. Once she ascends the throne, our entire family will be in a very passive position!"

Li Rongdun listened and nodded repeatedly. Although he was cunning and treacherous as Queen Murong Yanran said, he was indeed inferior to his son in terms of strategy!

Otherwise, she wouldn't be regarded as a think tank by the all-powerful Queen Regent of Daqian!

Li Rongdun asked, "Has my son made up his mind?"

Li Chongze said: "If we spread the news of the emperor's death in advance and notify the surrounding countries, they will send time to come and mourn!"

"Then the Crown Princess will definitely not be able to ascend the throne anytime soon!"

"By then, we will encourage the Empress and the Queen Mother to jointly rule the country from behind the scenes. This will create a situation where the two major families behind the Crown Princess will compete with each other and confront each other!"

"As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits; when the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind! We are the fisherman and the oriole!"

Having said that, Li Chongze moved a few fingers slightly, as if he was calculating the world.

Then he closed his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "In another six months, Hao'er will be returning from Daqian after completing his studies."

"By then, with Hao'er's talent, character, family background, and unparalleled grace, he will surely captivate the Crown Princess!"

"If Hao'er can use just a little more trickery, he'll be able to keep her firmly under his control! By then, Xuanyuan Country will belong to us!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Rongdun and Li Chongze looked at each other and laughed!

Only Li Yujun, who had been standing by without saying a word, had a slightly ugly expression on his face.

Li Yuhao is his eldest brother, but they have the same father as him but different mothers. Although Li Yuhao's mother is a singing girl, she is favored by Li Chongze.

Since childhood, although Li Yuhao was born out of wedlock, he was superior to him in every aspect!

Just as Li Chongze said, Li Yuhao was far superior to him in terms of talent, knowledge, appearance, and martial arts!

Li Chongze also turned his head at this time, looked at Li Yujun, and said coldly: "Jun'er, did you hear what your father said just now?"

"I'll give you six months. If you can't capture the Crown Princess within this time, your brother will handle the matter!"

"You know very well that if your brother returns, the Crown Princess will be just a little plaything in his hands!"

"So, you have to work hard in the next six months!"

Li Yujun quickly clasped his hands, bowed to the two elders, and lowered his head.

A fierce light flashed in his eyes!

He said respectfully, "Yes!"

……

Outer city, Wuyi Lane.

"Young man, I see that you have amazing bones and are a martial arts prodigy that is rarely seen in a century. I now have three peerless secret manuals in my hands!"

"They are 'Dragon Raising its Head', 'Spring Breeze' and 'March 3rd' respectively!"

"Only one or two taels of silver per copy. With these three magical skills, you can dominate the world and roam freely in the martial arts world!"

An old Taoist in a tattered robe started to deceive a young man who was passing by.

Han Zhuo, who happened to be passing by not far away, heard it.

Hey, this voice sounds familiar!
